RULES AND REGULATIONS ADOPTED BY THE STATE 

BOARD OF EDUCATION FOR THE GOVERNMENT 

OF THE COUNTY HIGH SCHOOLS OF 

ALABAMA 



1. Principal and Teachers, Selection of. — Subject to the confirmation 
of the State Board of Education, the county board of education shall nomi- 
nate the teachers to the State Board of Education, but such nominations 
shall first receive the approval of the county superintendent. The county 
board of education shall determine the salary to be paid the principal, 
and shall recommend the salaries at which the assistants are to be engaged. 

2. Faculty, Eligibility to Election. — The faculty of the county high 
school shall consist of a principal, and two or more assistants. No assist- 
ant in any county high school shall be elected principal of the school in 
which he may have taught for any time during the twelve months immedi- 
ately preceding the date of his election, and no person living in a town or 
community in which a county high school is located shall be eligible for 
election to a position as assistant in that particular high school. 

In high schools employing only three teachers, at least two of these 
teachers must be graduates of standard colleges. Where more than three 
teachers are employed in any school, at least three-fourths of the teachers 
must be graduates of standard colleges. 

For the year 1922-23, no person with less than two years of colle- 
giate work beyond high school graduation shall be eligible for a position 
in any county high school, and beginning with the scholastic year 1923. or 
as soon thereafter as conditions permit, at least three years of collegiate 
work shall be required for eligibility to a position in any county high 
school, provided this regulation shall not disqualify any teacher already 
employed during the school year 1922-23. 

3. Principal, Term, and Duties; Bond. — The principal shall be em- 
ployed for twelve calendar months beginning July 1st and ending June 
30th of the following year. He shall be paid by the calendar month and 
shall furnish a bond of $1,000.00 in a reputable bonding company within 
thirty days from the date of his election. Said bond must be approved 
by and filed in the office of the Department of Education at Montgomery 
(the expense of this bond to be a charge to the county high school). He 
shall give his entire time to the management and control of the school and 
its activities. The teachers shall be employed for a term of nine calendar 
months, unless stipulated to the contrary in the minutes of the election 
by the State Department of Education. 

4. Financial Obligations. — The principal of each school shall keep a 
proper account of all financial obligations of the schools, listing each indi- 
vidual or firm together with the amount due at the time the obligation is 
incurred in such a way as to show at any time the actual and total out- 
standing indebtedness of the school. He shall require bills in duplicate 
of all accounts. Any account not included in the schedule of indebted- 
ness shall be a charge not to the school but to the principal, who shall 
be liable on his official bond therefor. 

5. Matriculation. — The principal shall keep a matriculation book, adopt- 
ed by the State Board of Education, in which shall be placed the full name, 
home address, and age of each pupil, and the name and address of the 
parent, with other desired infotmation. No pupil shall be matriculated 
until he presents a receipt signed by the high school treasurer showing 
that the matriculation and special fees for the term have been paid. 

6. Records of Pupils. — Every teacher shall keep a class register and 
the principal and teachers shall keep a complete record of the work of 
each pupil on special forms prepared for this purpose by the State De- 
partment of Education. 



7 Reports.— It shall be the duty of the principal at the close of each 
scholastic month and on June 30th of each year to make reports on blanks 
furnished by the Department of Education for that purpose. These re- 
ports shall be made in duplicate, one copy being sent to the county super- 
intendent and the other to the State Department of Education. 

8. Course of Study to be Followed — It shall be the duty of the prin- 
cipal and assistants in each county high school to follow faithfully the 
course of study prescribed by the State Board of Education. 

9. Seventh Grade.— If the county board of education deems it expedi- 
ent to allow the seventh grade to be taught in the county high school 
building as preparatory to the regular high school course as outlined by 
the State Board of Education, this will be permitted, provided all teachers 
of this grade are elected and their salaries fixed in the same manner as 
the county high school teachers, and the necessary funds to maintain 
the grade are appropriated by the county board of education or other lo- 
cal authorities. The teachers and pupils of this grade shall be under the 
direct supervision of the principal and governed in accordance with the 
rules and regulations made by the State Board of Education. 

10. The Junior High School.— County high schools are urged t© in- 
troduce the Junior High School organization wherever building space 
and equipment are available to accommodate the additional grades. This 
reorganization gives our county high schools an opportunity to increase 
substantially their service to the counties and offers a chance for them to 
do significant work in promoting the plan for reorganization for which 
the new School Code provides. Of course, no county high school shall 
introduce the Junior High School organization until all details pertaining 
to the program of studies, teaching force, equipment, building, etc., have 
been definitely and formally approved by the State Department of Edu- 
cation. 

11. Senior High School. — Whenever a junior high school, or a group 
of junior high schools, which has received the formal approval of the 
State Department of Education, has been organized in the territory served 
by a county high school and provides complete and adequate educational 
facilities in grades 7, 8 and 9 for the constituency of the county high school, 
it is recommended that the county high school be organized as a senior 
high school giving instruction only in the three senior high school grades. 
Modification in the program of studies are being made with the purpose 
of adjusting the county high schools to this organiation and it is antici- 
pated that within another year all necessary changes will have been made. 

12. Length of Session. — The session of the county high schools shall 
be nine scholastic months (thirty-six weeks) of actual teaching. The ses- 
sion is divided into two terms of four and one-half months each. 

13. Entrance Requirements. — Applicants for admission to a county 
high school must present an elementary seventh grade certificate or pass a 
written examination on the elementary school subjects with a grade of not 
less than 60'/f on any subject. These papers must be filed for at least six 
months in the office of the principal of the county high school. 

14. Summer Activities of the Principal. — It is the sense of the State 
Board of Education that the principal of a county high school should 
use the vacation period in bringing to the attention of the boys and girls 
throughout the county the advantages to be obtained by attending the 
high school, in pursuing professional study at some institution of higher 
learnmg, or in performing any other school work that may be assigned by 
the State Board of Education. 

No principal shall engage in any other form of lucrative employment 
or absent himself from the school either in term time or vacation for a 
longer period than two weeks without the consent of the State Board 
of Education. 

15. Fees. — Every pupil in the county high school must present to the 
principal his receipt at the beginning of each term of the session, showing 



that a matriculation fee of $2.50 and all required special fees have been 
paid to the local treasurer of the high school. 

16. Treasurer, Duties of — Every county high school must have a treas- 
urer who shall be elected as the county high school principal is elected, 
and who shall reside in the place where the school is located. He shall 
be elected for a term of three years and shall be required to make a bond 
of three thousand dollars in a reputable surety company. The bond 
must be approved by and filed in the office of the Department of Edu- 
cation at Montgomery. The treasurer shall keep in a well-bound book 
accurate accounts of all his transactions and shall make such reports as 
may be required of him by the State Board of Education. He shall de- 
posit to his credit as treasurer all funds accruing to the school and shall 
keep an accurate account of receipts and disbursements of all moneys, 
stating from what source they came and how they were disbursed, giving 
receipts and taking proper vouchers. 

The treasurer shall be paid no salary for his services, but the premium 
on the surety bond required of him and any incidental expenses connected 
with his official duties must be paid out of any funds belonging to the 
county high school. Accounts covering such items shall be furnished the 
county high school principal in accordance with Rule 16 and shall be paid 
in the regular way. 

17. Pay Roll. — On the last day of each month the principal shall de- 
liver to the county high school treasurer a pay roll in duplicate showing 
the amount due each teacher, janitor, and other person who has a legiti- 
mate account against the high school. With the exception of the teachers 
and janitor, all persons shall present to the principal an itemized state- 
ment in duplicate of the account against the school before he is authorized 
to place the same on a monthly pay roll. The school principal shall make 
the monthly pay roll in duplicate atttaching thereto duplicates of all bills 
and accounts. He shall fix the proper affidavit on the back of each pay 
roll before delivering it to the county high school treasurer. 

The county high school treasurer must pay every item with a bank 
check and place the proper check number in the "Check Number" column 
of both pay rolls furnished him each month by the principal. And it shall 
be unlawful to pay out any funds not authorized by the pay roll. He must 
make a general report of his receipts and disbursements on the blank form 
at the bottom of each monthly pay roll and after properly making the 
affidavit at the bottom of the pay roll sheet, he must forward one of the 
pay rolls to the State Superintendent of Education at Montgomery so 
that it will reach the office within ten days after the pay roll is submitted 
to the treasurer by the principal. The other pay roll, together with du- 
plicate bills shall be kept on file in the office of the treasurer and in it 
shall be placed the cancelled checks paying the various items when these 
checks are returned to the treasurer. 

18. Treasurer, Report of. — The treasurer must make an annual finan- 
cial report in duplicate on or before July 30th for the year ending June 
30th immediately preceding. One of the reports shall be filed with the 
county superintendent and the other with the State Superintendent of 
Education at Montgomery. 

19. Appropriations. — The quarterly State appropriation of $750.00 shall 
be made payable to the order of the high school treasurer and shall be 
drawn on July 1, October 1, Januar\' 1, and April 1 of each year. The 
requisition for this appropriation will be made by the State Superintendent 
in ample time for it to reach him each quarter before the dates mentioned. 

The special funds appropriated in October, 1920, for maintenance of 
county high schools are also available in quarterly instalments. A requi- 
sition from the county high school treasurer is necessary for each instal- 
ment and these requisitions cannot be honored until formal application for 
these funds for the current year has been made to and approved by the 
State Board of Education. 



20. Examinations. — Examinations must be held at the close of each 
term of four and one-half months, and at the close of the session a report 
shall be issued by the principal to each pupil stating the grade such pupil 
has made during that year. This report, if satisfactory, shall entitle the 
pupil to promotion. Written tests shall be held monthly in each subject in 
order to assist the teachers in determining the standing of pupils. 

21. Promotions, Grades. — Advancement shall be by subjects and, in 
order to pass a satisfactory examination in any branch, the pupil shall 
make on each branch during the first year an average of not less than 
6S7r, and an average of not less than 70% during each succeeding year. 
The grade in any subject for each term shall be found by dividing the 
sum of the four monthly grades and the term examination grade by five. 
All examination papers shall be held for reference until the time of the 
next succeeding term examination. 

21. Faculty Meetings and Professional Study. — Faculty meetings shall 
be held twice each month during the session, at which meetings the teach- 
ers shall consider such matters as may tend to promote the progress of 
the students and the welfare of the school, including the methods of teach- 
ing the various subjects of instruction. Some professional book selected 
for this purpose from the State Reading Circle List or some book pre- 
scribed by the State Superintendent of Education shall also be studied 
uniforml}- by the faculties of the several county high schools and a 
portion of the regular teachers' meetings shall be given to the discussion 
of topics taken from this book. 

23. Supervisors. — Supervisors appointed by the State Board of Educa- 
tion shall visit the various county high schools of the State and after 
carefully inspecting them shall make a written report to the Superintend- 
ent of Education. 

24. Rules of Discipline. — The principal of each county high school 
is hereby authorized to make such rules and regulations as may be neces- 
sary successfully to control and discipline the school, provided such rules 
and regulations shall in no way conflict with the rules and regulations made 
bjr the County and State Boards of Education. 

25. Insurance of Building. — It shall be the duty of the county high 
school principal to see that the county high school property is properly 
insured at all times. The building and equipment must be insured for 
their full value, and the premiums to cover the insurance should be paid 
in the regular way on a monthly pay roll out of any county high school 
funds. The insurance policies shall be made payable to the State Board 
of Education of Alabama and the county high school treasurer shall be 
the custodian of the policies. 

26. Inventory. — It is urgently recommended that county high school 
principals make each year between the close of school and June 30 a 
careful and complete inventory of all furnishings, apparatus, equipment, 
books, furniture, etc., in their school buildings. A copy of this inventory 
should be tiled with the county high school treasurer or with the county 
superintendent as the county board of education may designate. Most 
principals will find it desirable to check up this inventory again at the 
opening of school in September. A form for this purpose will be prepared 
or recommended by the State Supervisor of Secondary Education. 

27. Diplomas. — Diplomas shall be issued to all pupils who complete, 
in a satisfactory manner, the prescribed course of study for the county 
high schools. The diplomas must be purchased from the firm designated 
by the State Board of Control and Economy. All diplomas must be signed 
by the State Superintendent of Education, the county superintendent and 
the principal of the county high school. 

28. Credit Values. — Standard colleges require at least fifteen Carnegie 
units for admission without examination to the freshman class. A unit 
means the satisfactory completion of a subject pursued during a period of 
36 weeks with five weekly recitations, each recitation embracing from 40 
to 60 minutes. Two hours in laboratory, field work, manual training, or 
home economics are equivalent to one hour in recitation. 



29. Standards of Organization. — The organization of the work of the 
county high school shall at least conform to the standards adopted by the 
State Department of Education and the Association of Alabama Colleges 
for the accreditment of secondary schools of the State. 

30. County Control. — In order to stimulate local pride and interest in 
the county high school, the State Board of Education shall intrust the 
management and control of the high school to the county board of educa- 
tion, provided the appropriations to the school from county or local sources 
are at least equal to the annual State appropriation to each school, sub- 
ject to the limitations set out in the law for the government and control 
■of county high schools. 

Minimum Standards for Secondary Schools of Alabama. — In order to 
assist school authorities to comply with the provisions of the Code, which 
places upon them the responsibility of organizing <he work of secondary 
schools in keeping with the general plan authorized by the State Board 
of Education, the present program of studies is recommended as meet- 
ing the minimum content requirements which it is made the duty of the 
State Board of Education to set up for their guidance. (See Article 3, 
Section 7, of the School Code.) 



PROGRAM OF STUDIES FOR THE COUNTY HIGH SCHOOLS 
OF ALABAMA 

(Based on elementary courses of seven grades or years) 

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY THE FOLLOWING NOTES, WHICH ARE 

NECESSARY TO A PROPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE 

COURSE OF STUDY 

1. The program of studies is arranged upon a system of constants 
and variable or electives. All pupils alike are to be required to complete 
the constants as listed. Exceptions are permitted to this rule in the 
case of two subjects, viz.. Algebra I and English IV. At the discretion of 
the principal of the school involved, pupils may omit either of these two 
subjects and still be permitted to graduate. It is required that each case 
be passed upon individually by the principal and before the exception is 
allowed the principal should be convinced that the change results in 
greater educational advantages for the pupils concerned. Of course, no 
pupils who have any expectations of entering college can afford to omit 
Algebra I or Plane Geometry as all standard colleges in this section of our 
country require these two units in mathematics for admission. We realize 
how untenable a position is taken when Algebra is made a constant for 
first year high school pupils while such subjects as Community Civics, 
Home Economics and Alanual Arts are elective; but too wide and sudden 
a departure from our previous program of studies does not seem wise 
at this time. 

2. Choice of electives should l)e made upon the l)asis of definite pur- 
pose, preferably the life-career motive. It is required that the electives be 
so chosen that of the 16 units of work required for graduation each pupil 
shall offer three units of work done in each of two major subjects, as for 
example. English, Social Studies, Mathematics, Science, Latin, etc., and 
two units of work in each of two minor subjects. Pupils are expected to 
•make their choice of electives with the advice and guidance of teachers 
and parents and the written approval of this choice signed by the pupils' 
teacher-advisor, or principal, and by the parents or guardians, should be 
kept on file in the office of the principal. Selections of electives for 
the succeeding year are to be made and reported by pupils at least a full 
month before the end of each school year. 

3. Careful attention is required to the special work in Arithmetic and 
Spelling provided for under the new plan. Two special periods per day 



8 

of 15 minutes each are called for, one for each subject. In these special 
classes, or "hospital squads," only those pupils are to be placed who dis- 
close weakness in those subjects in their ordinary classroom work. Pupils 
should be allowed to withdraw from these classes as soon as weaknesses 
have been remedied and accepted standards of work attained. The work 
in Spelling for all high school grades should be based on words actually 
mis-spelled by the individual pupils concerned, on the Ayres Spelling 
Scale of 1000 words, and on the Huddleston list of the second and third 
thousands of important words for spelling. Pupils are not required to 
buy any textbook in Spelling. Every teacher should be furnished with a 
copy of the Ayres Spelling Scale (sold by the Russell Sage Foundation, 130 
E. 22nd St., New York City, price 10c) and the Huddleston Spelling List, 
(sold by Teachers College, New York, price 40c). 

Work in Arithmetic should also be based on the weakness of indi- 
vidual pupils disclosed in their regular classroom work. About one-half 
the time given to this special study should be devoted by each pupil to his 
own revealed weaknesses. Pupils are not to be required to have text- 
books in Arithmetic but each teacher should have several well-selected 
exercise books in Arithmetic available for ready use. For the other half 
of the time this special period further drill in the fundamental processes 
in Arithmetic .should be given to all pupils in these special classes through 
the use of either Studebaker's Practice Exercises (sofd" by Scott, Foresman 
& Co.) or the Courtis Standard Practice Tests (sold by the World Book 
Co.) Each county high school is expected to have one full set of either 
the Courtis or Studebaker material. 

Pupils of all classes are eligible for membership in these special classes 
but none should be required to join them who have not shown weakness 
in this work, nor should they be compelled to remain in them after these 
weaknesses have been corrected. Credit cannot be given for this work 
in the usual way but no pupil should be allowed to graduate who is se- 
riously deficient in either of these branches. 

4. Electives are grouped in two classes, A and B. Those listed- under 
A are to he provided in every county high school and none is to be with- 
drawn unless the number of pupils electing it for the year concerned is 
too small to justify the course. Ordinarily no course should be given for 
less than six pupils; in the case of foreign language where the course must 
be pursued for two years, the beginning course, should not be given usual- 
ly for less than nine pupils. Schools are authorized to offer any of the 
courses listed under B whenever the teaching force is large enough to 
carry these courses without overloading teachers or placing more than 
30 pupils in recitation divisions. 

5. In the smaller schools all third and fourth year electives should 
be given in alternate years and should be open to pupils in either the third 
or fourth year class. A few of the small county high schools will find 
it valuable also to give Manual Arts I and Home Economics I only in 
alternate years. The plan of alternating such courses is an admirable one 
for the purpose not only of lightening the teaching load of the teacher 
but of introducing flexibility of organization and variety of electives open 
to high school pupils. Outline I shows the program to be used in schools 
so large that no advantage is gained by alternating courses. Outline II 
shows a program for a school so small as to make desirable a maximum 
of alternation. The great majority of our county high schools lie between 
these extremes. No school is expected to reverse the order of alterna- 
tion, e. g., electives listed for even years should be given during this com- 
ing year. Those listed for odd years should not be given ordinarily except 
when those listed for even years are also given this year. In case 
of doubt in these matters, principals should communicate promptly with 
the Division of Secondary Education in the State Department. 

6. The normal schedule for a high school pupil should comprise 20 
recitations per week or four units of work per year, exclusive of the 
special work in Spelling and Arithmetic described above. The reduction 
from the 22 recitations per week previously required to the 20 recitations 



of the present program should make possible a noticeable improvement 
in the quality of classroom work. Only in exceptional cases should pu- 
pils be permitted to carry an extra school subject in addition to this 
normal schedule. A pupil who is permitted to carry an extra subject must 
drop it and return to the standard schedule as soon as his work in any 
one school subject shall for any such month fall below the passing grade. 

7. Every pupil in school should be required to provide one of the fol- 
lowing: Webster's Secondary School Dictionary (plain), American Book 
Co., $1.35; Webster's Secondary School Dictionary (indexed), American 
Book Co.. $1.62. 

8. In Chemistry and Physics two double periods per week are to be 
given to laboratory work. Five double periods per week are required in 
Manual Arts and Home Economics. Agriculture II, Home Economics II 
and Manual Arts II are to be given only in those schools which have teach- 
ers with special certificates in these subjects from the State Department 
of Education. 

9. The work in Current History should be carefully and systematically 
planned and should be based upon a standard weekly magazine, as for 
example. The Indpendent, Literary Digest, or The Outlook, or upon a 
monthly review such as The Review of Reviews or The World's Work. 
This publication should be in the hands of pupils in lieu of textbooks. 
The regular and wholesome reading of standard daily newspapers should 
be encouraged and stimulated in connection with this study in every reas- 
onable way. Civic matters of local interest may well receive some at- 
tention. Much careful use of sandard periodicals and books of reference 
is heartily recommended in this study. 

10. On page 16 is given the list from which literary selections for class 
study in English are to be made. A suggestive grouping by years is made 
for the guidance and assistance of principals and teachers. It is intended 
that six selections shall be studied in each of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th years 
of the county high schools. It is urged that all high school puipls be en- 
couraged to read outside of class each month one well-chosen book of an 
attractive and wholesome sort. Excellent lists from which selections for 
this indivdual reading may be made are given in Bulletin 1917, No. 2 of 
the Bureau of Education, on the Reorganization of English in Secondary 
Schools. This bulletin is recommended to English teachers as a most 
valuable help in all their work. 

11. Elementary Algebra is to be continued as a one year subject in 
the 1st year of high school. The years work is to cover chapters 1-18 in- 
clusive of the adopted text. Marsh's Elementary Algebra, with substantial 
omissions. The list of omissions has been prepared by the State Depart- 
ment of Education and no other omission in the subject-matter of the 
course is to be made. The change to the new program of studies has 
made Plane Geometry this year an elective for both 2nd and 3rd year 
pupils. Second year pupils who desire to elect Plane Geometry should not 
postpone it as the first arrangement is not to be continued after the current 
year. 

12. Pupils who are satisfactorily pursuing approved courses in Piano 
under properly certified teachers may receive for this work credit toward 
graduation. This credit is to be given on the basis of a laboratory sub- 
ject and double time is required for all practice in technic. The instruc- 
tor must hold a special certificate in music from the State Department 
of Education and the course offered must receive the approval of the 
Department. 

13. Pupils who take the courses in Vocational Agriculture and Vocation- 
al Home Economcis are required to offer for graduation 10 units of work 
in addition to the four years of vocational work. These 10 units are to 
include the constants listed below and enough electives to meet require- 
ment. Pupils in these courses may choose their electives under the same 
regulations as do other pupils in the county high schools except that 
certain related subjects are required in the Home Economics course.
